Too many kids are so【C2】______overweight—even too uncomfortable as they【C3】______into their little desks at school.
    We shouldn’t underestimate the【C4】______of obesity during the teen years.

【C9】
选项 A、coping
B、surviving
C、striving
D、contending
答案A
解析 动词辨义题。后文提到，超重的孩子们“由于体型原因而遭受同学的欺辱和虐待”，所以“老师和校园心理学家们也正在应对这一孩子们当中出现的羞耻与苦恼的难题”，cope with“处理，应付”符合题意。survive“幸存，活下来”；strive“努力，抗争”；contend with“竞争，斗争”，这三个动词均不符合文意，故排除。
